World Cup Update

AC's asked me to review on eljay, so I'm ripping it right off from there.Italy vs Ghana: 2 - 0
Commentator commented that Ghana had a base of European league players. Expected better when I heard that comment, but oh well. I do agree with him that it's quite a good match up, but it just seems as if Ghana is incredibly unlucky and Italy is incredibly ...lucky. Yeah. Goals are from, umm...what the heck? I forgot...well, truthfully I dozed in and out. I wasn't watching the live feed, but still, yesterday's despair and migraine has had it's toll. Definitely a better watch than, say, England and Paraguay.
Dirty - when Italy had their first goal it definitely heated things up. I don't really blame them for starting to kick the pretty Italians all over the place (exaggeration.). I would have really, I never was a huge fan of Italy. Not even a fan. I thought they should have yanked that pretty man with the pretty long hair hard, before the last whistle (they weren't gonna win anyway.) Hahahah! Yeah, I'm just jealous because in mourning, I lopped off my hair yesterday for Japan. I should have just done away my bottom layers and get a denise keller look.
The second goal was horrendous. They went one on one and the Ghanaian defender, Kuffour I think, just sort of went the wrong side, so the only thing in between the Italian and the goalpost was the goalkeeper who had an incredibly normal name that I cannot remember. He went too far in front, Italian went past him, got a clear view and wham. If he had missed that, he would have looked like an utter idiot.
Ghana probably made slightly more mistakes than Italy did, maybe not slightly, but they're still not half bad. They don't stink indiscriminately, at least, and I'd say any Ghana match should be alright to watch. Other than that, I still think that luck was on Italy's side, which made the difference.
Tomorrow's updates will come late because I will be out teaching until noon, and therefore may only catch the last match for today, before I catch the next round of matches. Probably all feed from Livescore.
